The Skaven are a race of evil rat-men who inhabit the underground of the Warhammer world. They gnaw at the roots of civilisation, eternally scheming and preparing for the day when their uncountable hordes will overrun the surface world. The only thing that keeps them in check is the constant internal strife between the clans that make up their society, but one day the Grey Seers, who speaks for the Horned Rat himself, will unify them and lead them to inevitable victory. Warhammer Armies: Skaven is one in a series of Warhammer Armies supplements. Each book in the series describes in detail an army, its history and its heroes.
